Answer 2

Saubhagya.iitm said - A person who specifically talks about themselves are called a 'Narcissit' who is a self - centered egotist or ego-manic which can be other words you could use.

No, not really Saubhagaya.iitm. The word you're looking for is "narcissist" and there's a slight difference between narcissism and egotism. An egotistical person is someone who is given to talking about themselves, a vain or boastful person. A narcissistic person is also a vain person but with a penchant to derive erotic gratification admiration of his or her own physical or mental attributes. Every narcissist has a big ego but not every person with a big ego is a narcissist.

Answer 3

1. "Egotistical" has the exact meaning asked for. (Note, however, that the question should more grammatically have been phrased as "too much about himself" for a male; "too much about herself" for a female; or "too much about herself or himself, or himself or herself, or him/herself, or her/himself" if the appropriate gender is unknown, because "someone" is a singular pronoun.) 2. Megalomaniac(adj. & n.) Example: The megalomaniac despot crushed the demonstration in the town. 3. Conceited Example: The conceited actor rebuked the press and drew more criticism.
